Dr Vincent Knight-Schrijver
Vince has a certain fondness for exploring complexity in dynamic biological systems, multivariate analyses and computational problems. His previous research for his PhD used text mining and dynamic mathematical models of pharmacology to understand disease mechanisms. Now, Vince's research focuses on using sophisticated bioinformatics and machine learning to grapple the large-scale datasets present in next generation sequencing of human stem cell biology. Currently his aim is to understand the crosstalk between two important stem cell models of cardiac tissues for regenerative medicine, the epicardium and the myocardium. Outside of science, Vince is a musical percussionist and composer, travelling photographer, part-time chef and voluntary slave to his cat.
